“Being able to shift seamlessly between passenger and cargo missions is critical for operators serving remote and regional markets,” said Juan Escalante, vice president, SkyCourier Sales. “The Cessna SkyCourier provides a dependable, versatile platform that enables operators to respond quickly to changing transportation needs while maintaining efficiency.”
Engineered for dependable performance in rugged environments, the twin‑engine, high‑wing turboprop combines generous payload capacity with excellent short takeoff and landing performance. Its large cargo door supports efficient loading while fixed landing gear and Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A‑65SC engines contribute to durability and operational confidence across a variety of mission profiles.
LEASCOR was established in 2016 as the air chartering arm of ACDI Multipurpose Cooperative, which serves members of the Armed Forces of the Philippines and other uniformed personnel, including active service members, retirees, reservists and civilian employees.
“The arrival of our first Cessna SkyCourier marks a defining milestone for Leading Edge Air Services Corporation,” said Maj. Gen. Gilbert S. Llanto, Armed Forces of the Philippines (Ret). “It strengthens our ability to provide reliable air connectivity to communities that depend on consistent passenger and cargo service, particularly in remote areas.”
